genie144 -> Question about Movement (2/15/2007 7:00:22 PM)
|
So I am playing as the colonials, and moved to setup a combined assault on the british that had just relanded and captured Boston. I move a medium army (3-5 green dots) into a surrrounding territory in order to combine with my much larger army (4-9 green dots) (don't remember exactly). The british launch a dragoon unit from boston. My small army meets and kills. Small army is waiting for large army to meet to combine. The british then send out the entire army sans a regiment or two. They run into my small army and beat them to a draw. My small army moves away to lick its wounds, the british follow. Same thing happens, beat my army to a draw, my army retreats. The british follow. Same thing happens, retreats back to original territory. Is then soundly beat and scattered to the winds. Then my large army shows up. More green dots than the orange dots of the british. And after the first battle is soundly defeated and scattered. My question is two fold. How is the AI allowed to chase my army across the map? And secondly, how come my larger army in better condition (color of dots) was scattered after 1 battle whle my smaller army survived 3 total battles before being scattered? Just to avoid some confusion - this was 1 turn. So the question I guess is how is the AI allowed to "follow" my army. Sam
